Silhouette Of The Heart

Passage yearned beside the fires burned
The twist of fate a heavy weight
Born am I of flesh and bone
Not am I of flint and stone

Silhouette of tainted breath
That I had brought upon myself
Like books the rest upon the shelf
Am I a mirrored image of myself

Beset by time significant ones
By light of the dawn of the golden sun
Tears that I've shed
With the beat of my heart

Silhouette of the privilege
But what is the sum
Silhouette of the heart
By the power of one
